| Notes | The Cunning Man is the last novel written by Canadian novelist Robertson Davies. Unlike most of Davies' previous novels, The Cunning Man was not part of a trilogy. There is some supposition, however, that had Davies lived long enough this novel and his previous novel, Murther & Walking Spirits (1991) might have constituted a trilogy.
Davies' publisher, Douglas M. Gibson, tells how Davies had been researching and preparing the novel which would have followed The Cunning Man and would have been the third in the series. Gibson speculated that this unfinished trilogy might have been called The Toronto Trilogy. |
